Mixed week

Man, it's been a week.

Yesterday I didn't get to my email - work or personal - until 4:00 PM. I had an 8:00 meeting that went right on until 1:00 PM. Taking minutes. Longhand. 25 pages in my 9x6 notebook. My hand was in serious pain by the end. I still don't want to get back to drafting my summergen fic because my hand protests writing. And that's with the good pens. I shudder to think what shape I'd be in using a ballpoint.

Jumped out of that meeting directly into another one that went another 2 hours. Fewer notes, but still. Ow. And more action items out of this.

Training continues slowly. I hope we're not throwing too much at K all at once. I'm trying. But I'm also coming to the conclusion that she's a bit of a ditz. Nice. But a ditz. And WAY more girly than I am (which is not hard, but still). Giggly. This is not something I find particularly helpful.

Ah, well.

Impala sighting! I was dozing on the way home today, and lifted my head just in time to see the bus passing a classic Impala. Four-door, black, but matte black, not metallic, and older than the Winchesters' - this looked like it was a 2nd-gen (61-64) from the grille and the shape of the taillights. Still. Sweet.

Anyway. I still have to post my Friday FicRec for Wee!Chesters, so off to do that while it's still Friday.
gwendolyngrace: (DirtyThoughts)
Title: Rescue Me
Author: Gwendolyn Grace ([livejournal.com profile] gwendolyngrace)
Genre: Pre-series, Teen!Chesters
Characters: Sam and Dean, OC’s
Rating: PG-13 for language, sexual situations, drug and alcohol use
Summary: “I just…can you just come and get me?” Sam asked. Pekin, Illinois, 1995: Sam accepts an invitation to a birthday party, only to learn it’s really not what he was expecting. Dean to the rescue! Or not quite….
Disclaimer: No copyright infringement intended. Just say No to Drugs!
Author’s Notes: Did anyone else ever get presented with “contracts” in school? This is the result of that idea. Also, I’ve wanted to explore an early experience with marijuana in Dean’s life for a while, and this plot bunny offered up a good opportunity. Don’t worry: he doesn’t inhale. Much. Thanks to the betas, [livejournal.com profile] relli86 and especially [livejournal.com profile] etakyma for their feedback.
Wordcount: 5,750ish

Dean picked up Kelly Unger in time to get a pizza before the movie. He’d asked Kelly out twice before, and while she had been willing to see him outside school, their plans had always fallen through for one reason or another.... )
gwendolyngrace: (Love Is... Impala)
Title: Five Times…Dean Didn’t Get There in the Impala
Author: [livejournal.com profile] gwendolyngrace
Genre: Gen
Characters: Dean, Sam, John, Bobby, OFC, Impala (by proxy)
Rating: PG
Summary: 1989; 1991; 1994; 2006; 2008.
Wordcount: 3,306
Warnings: There is a tiny reference to the final scene of 3x07, which could be considered a spoiler.
Disclaimer: If Kripke kills him for real? I shall cry. Buckets. If they really were mine, I wouldn’t need LJ.
Author’s Notes: I’ve had 1, 2, and 4 in my head for a while. Five sort of…happened. If there were a 6th, it would be the happiness of Sam bundling Dean onto a cruise ship to go to England for Led Zeppelin’s reunion concert. Heh. And I swear, I had Dean hyperventilating about being without the car before RSAM aired. However, I’m aware that it only counts as being Kripke’d if you’ve posted before it appears onscreen. Dangit. Anyway, I’ve been ready to post this for a bit, but when I heard about the supernatural.tv Impala challenge, I decided to brush it up and go for it. I’m aware that this is a little bit different, but I think the absence of the Impala in these vignettes goes a long way to demonstrating her presence in the Winchesters’ lives.
